Barney: Remembering dates is easy!
Andy: Yeah?
Barney:Sure...take 1776 for instance. First you remember the 1, and that's easy 'cause it's the first number in the alphabet. Then you got 7, well, 7 is a lucky number. Then another 7. That's easy 'cause you just remembered 7. Finally...6. 1 from 7 is 6. 1776!
Andy: Wouldn't it be easier to just remember 1776?
Barney (huffily): Well if you wanna do everything the easy way you'll never learn anything.
